Well that's what Metrolinx loves, dont you know? (As evidenced by the 3 Eglinton Stations we'll have in the GTA).

I don't think there's any kind of retrofit that would save this branch, it just needs to be closed altogether in favour of another location that's closer to the waterfront.

To be honest, I completely understand the residents concerns with this shelter. New Toronto had a significant problem with drugs and prostitution in the late 90's through to mid-2000s and it tooks years and years of various forms of intervention to rid the neighbourhood of the issue. The city...

Just want to make sure the public is ready on the grand opening day! Truthfully in all honestly, I want nothing more for the LRT to be successful. The TTC just makes it difficult to make that seem like that's going to be a difficult thing to have unfold. We'll see for sure very soon.

Who wants to take a guess at what type of delays we'll see with this line on it's grand opening on it's first day? Take your pick between the following: Emergency Alarm Police/Fire Investigation Signal Problem Mechanical Issue Trespasser at Track Level Vehicle Intrusion (Bonus) Personally i'd...

I think they're just waiting for it to get to a John St level, featuring a giant sinkhole to open up before they finally action something.

Agreed, the city still needs to find a way to bring another branch closer east of the South Core area/or Waterfront East area.

There's knockout panels and a space provisioned for PATH through Prestige (Phase 1 of Pinnacle's development), which would then cross over Freeland St to connect to Menkes insipidly planned Phase 2 buildings. So it wouldn't be taking the route you highlighted above.

Surprise, surprise; another thing that Metrolinx isnt transparent about. I can only imagine the troves of information and controversy that would be unleashed if they were ever breached.

Of course there's a probability, and that probability is 0%.

Let's continue to clown show into 2026, it's not opening this year.

Ughh I hate to see the plan proceed as is; it's abysmal, lacklustre, and soulless. Till this day I still hate massive "master-planned" communities, but if it were an option i'd rather have Pinnacle develop this prime site because Menkes isnt even trying to do anything that's even slightly...

Basically very minimal/next to no effect on reducing 401 congestion. Any reduction would be quickly replaced by induced demand.

I think the problem most of us here have (the one's who are complaining about the speed) is that when you've spent billions to upgrade a line to have better and more reliable transit, only to operate in such a way that doenst fully maximize the potential. It's akin to buying an electric...

Well I mean, the city pretty much does controlled concrete chipping along this stretch every other day. Glad they finally realized that this stretch is deteriorating like crazy and woke up to decide to action something. . But the fact that we're going to have to wait up to 15 years for a full...
